That's a curiously wrought dial. :D
Neither square nor oblong... oh wait yes, little squares :thumbup:

Looks like the 4 o'clock baton maybe?
Yes, on another shot you can see similar in the 3 position so just one of the hour markers.

At this point it is going to come down to size. Can't see any other reason (from the teases) I won't dust the wallet off.

Really looking forward to seeing this tomorrow. Having very recently purchased a lovely ice blue PRX I’m excited to see whether this release follows in a similar vein. The dial close ups earlier look amazing.

It's been leaked online already, if you care to search online, I cant be the only one who's seen a pretty detailed article.

Indeed. Almost exactly as expected.

I’ve seen the leaked review and I’ve only one question. Would it raffle well? Not to say I’m about to do another any time soon.

I saw the leaked article and it looks great but is too large for me. If it was smaller, it would be an instant purchase for me.

Anyone think CW will offer a smaller size down the line?
2 sizes works for the PRX and the C63 Sealander.

Can I just remind everyone not to discuss details of the watch on the forum until it is formally launched tomorrow (or later today now, UK time) - even if you have seen something in a leaked article.

There's not long to go now. Let's respect the embargo until the watch is launched on the CW website. :thumbup:

Thanks.

And it's live bang on time.

Looks good, I'm sure a lot of people will say it's an homage or derivative and it depends whether you care about that or not. Did make me laugh with the voiceover though "an integrated luxury sports watch, like no other". Hmm...

Probably too big for me at 40mm, having tried the skyline and laureato recently, but I may give it a go.
